Description: Allow page selection based on imagelinks
Extension / Version: DPL   /   1.6.9
Type / Status: Change Request   /   open

Problem

I have a potential usage case where I need to retrieve a list of pages that use a particular image, but I found that neither linksto nor uses can do that.

For example, using linksto=Image:Baka dancers June 2006.jpg will effectively get the pages listed at Special:Whatlinkshere/Image:Baka_dancers_June_2006.jpg, rather than a list like that at Image:Baka_dancers_June_2006.jpg#Links.

In other words, I guess I would like a mechanism similar to linksto, but checks the imagelinks table instead of pagelinks.
